Finally! I've uploaded my first Acme:: module on CPAN!
As I said in Kapow! Zamm!! Splatt!!!, I've abandonned the boring foo, bar, baz for the more dynamic, exciting and let's admit it kitsch sound effects from the Batman serial from the sixties. But it looks like I always use the three or four same ones, maybe because I'm a bear of very little brain.
So I asked Perl to help me. Enters Acme::MetaSyntactic, which randomly returns an item in one of a few predefined lists.
Future version might include more item generation algorithms. After all, the Shadok vocabulary is a base-4 system, so Acme::MetaSyntactic should be able to return not only ga, bu, zo and meu, but also gabu, meuzo and gagazo.
And did I mention that the test suite achieves 100% coverage?
In the same vein as Batman, I'd love to see variables from Don Martin's comics. I found a "dictionary" of his sound effects too.
In my next module I'll write
Thanks for the inspiration.$ka_shpritza = [qw(flabadap fweet sproing)];

Would you use the module if the list you talk about was in version 0.03 ?
:-)
I think SHROUD would approve:
porpentine
slothrop
stencil
profane
godolphin
yoyodyne
waste
sferics
oed ipa
mondaugen
eigenvalue
schlozhauer
schoenmaker
bongo_shaftsbury
maijstra l
achtfaden
sachsa
mantissa
To list but a few... I'll have to go through my books. Hmm, don't know where those wacky spaces are coming from... read the source!
